Txtr Beagle takes a trip to the FCC, gets splayed for our amusement

@ 2013/02/01

Ever wanted to see inside an e-reader? Txtr's Beagle ultra-budget unit was deposited at the FCC's subterranean facility to see if its Bluetooth radio would fry your mind like only Thomas Pynchon can. The hardware was dissected and photographed for posterity, which we've added here to sate your curiosity. Now that the Beagle has been marked as safe enough to finish that copy of Times' Arrow we never got around to, we might see it wind up for sale in the US -- assuming Txtr can convince prospective partners AT&T and Sprint of the benefits of encouraging its customers to read.
